Today on BBC Radio 4
The Deighton File - the 30 minutes radio documentary about the life and work of Len Deighton first broadcast in May 2009 - was re-broadcast. It will be available for another week to
listen to on iPlayer. It's worth listening to to hear some new angles on familiar stories and understand how Deighton developed some of his key characters.
This was an excellent piece of storytelling by the producer Patrick Humphries, who as well as interviewing Deighton - his first broadcast interview for a few years - talks to Edward Milward-Oliver, novelist Jeremy Duns and Sir Max Hastings among others about the significance of Deighton's works and their impact on popular culture.
THANKS FOR THIS TIP. i JUST HIT MY BBC DOWNLOADER AND THERE IT WAS. I'VE DOWNLOADED TO DISK TO LISTEN TO ON THE WAY TO WORK TOMORROW.

Interviews like this are as rare as hen's teeth, so it was interesting to get an up to date perspective. If you haven't seen it already, download the BBC 4 Special 1-hour interview from four years ago - there's a link on my main site.
